Proteins are complex molecules that are made up of amino acids. They can be found in every cell in the body, and carry out vital processes that keep human beings alive. Mutations in proteins can lead to a multitude of diseases, the most common being cancer.

Study highlights evolutionary links between two kinds of ancient invertebrates

There are two phyla of tiny aquatic invertebrates: Kamptozoa and Bryozoa. They are related to ribbon worms (Nemertea), bristle worms, earthworms, and leeches (all of which are classified as annelids), as well as snails, clams, and other mollusks.
